Open Course: Sculpture and Ideas (STAR 240-01)

Seats are available in STAR 240: Sculpture & Ideas. Study casting, mâché and woodworking. Experience in different arts or art history may waive prerequisite. Email Prof Sullivan [email protected] if interested!

This course introduces the fundamental concepts of sculpture, and the basic skills needed to alter materials, objects and spaces. Through reading, writing, and making, we will consider how art communicates in visual and experiential ways, and examine contemporary works in contexts from museums to the public realm. Projects will focus on building significance and symbolism with various methods, including casting, wood construction, video, performance, and social engagement.

Meets Thursdays, 1-4 PM
